I have to manually remove ads from the Ubuntu server motd.
- nullcaution 4y agoWhat is the motd?
- lax4ever 4y agoMessage of the day, usually displayed at login.
- hef19898 4y agoSerious question. How comes I din't get any of those on desktop? And never did?
- Un1corn 4y agoI'm pretty sure MOTD is only shown on server installations
- fathyb 4y agoIt gets displayed right after logging in, either directly through `login` or indirectly through something like SSH. If you're using a desktop environment that's likely the reason: the message is hidden by your DE, and starting a terminal emulator does not cause a login. You might be able to see it by switching off your DE and logging in manually through the virtual console.
- executesorder66 4y agoYou won't see it on a graphical session. If you ssh into a server (or remotely onto your pc) it will get printed. Or switch to another vitual terminal (Ctrl + Alt + F8) and log in, and it should print whatever is in /etc/motd
- nullcaution 4y agoAt least it is probably not one of those dumb MS tabloid ads "Bill Gates hates this one weird trick!" Jokes aside, that would make me switch to Debian immediately.

- JohnFen 4y agoYeah, there are several reasons why I don't recommend Ubuntu to people. That's one of them. Although, admittedly, it's toward the end of the list.
- pndy 4y agoI've got one about Ubuntu ESM in Linux Mint - but only in virtual consoles
